During a press conference on Thursday, Detroit Police Chief James Craig would not elaborate into how Walker and his companion were arrested but did say they were taken in without incident.

Detroit police did not elaborate how the Portis or Coleman were involved in the boy's abduction.

The 13-year-old boy was abducted from Nino's on Warren on the city's east side around 10:30 p.m. Tuesday. Late Wednesday, police identified the suspect as 45-year-old Gregory Walker.

On Thursday, investigators executed a search warrant at a home in the 5200 block of Manistique. Detroit Police Chief James Craig said a firearm was recovered in their search but cannot confirm it is the one the suspect is seen carrying in the video.

Mitchell was with his cousin riding their bikes on east Warren when it's believed Walker grabbed him by the arm and forced him into the vehicle.

Walker was seen on video carrying a nickel-plated revolver and has a history of crimes and is on parole for grand theft auto.
